    To DIY or not to DIY, that is the question.....

    100% agreed as far as adding menthol to 'fix' a mixture, it'll mask almost any flavor with just a few drops, presuming, as you said, that one likes menthol! You can certainly mix pre-made juices, I've actually modified a few pre-made ones with a dash of this, dash of that, and gotten some...

    Liquid found where the battery meets the atomizer!!!

    Think you need 15 posts before you can have a sig, though could be wrong on that.

    Nic to no nic? Huge difference?

    I could definitely tell a difference between 24 and 16, as well as 0 in another flavor. Found some are just unvapable with/with-out nicotine, depending on the flavor. Anything really sweet, like the vanilla I tried in 0, almost needs nicotine to taste 'right', stepped it up to 18 and tasted...

    What would be your dream e juice flavor?

    I'd love something like a good rum/spice cake, myself. Curb my desire for sweets as well as fill in for the nicotine/caffeine I originally started vaping for.

    Loving it

    More vapor can come down to wattage, carto resistance, juice PG/VG mix, etc. One possibly easy fix, though it'll lower the nicotine level in your liquid, is to add VG, aka glycerin, purchasable OTC at most stores like Wal-mart, Target, and just about any pharmacy.

    Interesting experience regarding vapor temperature

    Was looking less for help, more to share my observations on menthol flavors. I've got the higher temperature hits figured out conceptually I just don't have the cash to put down on buying the kit. The times I got a hot hit I was using a 5v mod with 2.8ohm Kanger cartos, 18-24mg/ml, pre-made VK...

    Interesting experience regarding vapor temperature

    So, I've been looking for a 'hotter' hit practically since I started vaping, and have had little to no consistent results in the area short of using a 5v mod with LR cartos, which seems to burn them up pretty quickly. What I did notice, however, was as soon as I started mixing menthol flavors...

    PLEASE HELP SALVAGE MY VAPING EXPERIENCE!!! (thank you!)

    Glad to help, and agreed, that is a pretty bad ratio of working to duds! Not sure if there's a post-count restriction on being able to send private messages or if you disabled them when signing up, but if you can (might have to hit 15 posts first, not sure) send me a PM and I'd be glad to mail...

    PLEASE HELP SALVAGE MY VAPING EXPERIENCE!!! (thank you!)

    I asked a similar question about a good clearo here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/440581-looking-decent-clearomizer.html People recommended the evod for eGo batteries, which in your case would work out nicely. Also that kit looks just fine to me assuming it's the...

    Does anyone have evidence that e cigs are healthier than cigs based on personal experience or data?

    No major health issues to report on, nothing you can put numbers behind at any rate, but when I smoked analogs I'd have nights where I'd be looking for my fix pretty bad, and stressed when I realized my lighter was out, my pack was empty, etc. Also found a direct correlation between depression...

    Looking for a decent clearomizer

    I'd like 2.4 or lower myself, but I'm used to 2.8-3.0 on the same batts so it's not a huge issue to me, plus I have an adjustable 5v mod I can use if I'm really desperate for a hotter hit. All the CEs I need, huh? Tempting :tongue: I've heard great things about bottom coils but I want to see...

    Looking for a decent clearomizer

    Thanks for the insight, these sound like a pretty good buy from what you're saying. Most of my juices are fairly light, all-PG mixes, and if it's not working out and I'm tossing clearos constantly I can always just not buy more and look for something else at that price, unlike getting a $50...

    Looking for a decent clearomizer

    Anybody got recommendations or links? Found these: e-Smart clearomizers - package of 5 and immediately liked them for the color selection (they've got purple!) and the fact they'll fit my current 808 batteries as well as my 510 mod with adapter, just wasn't sure if there was a better option I...

    I give up!

    As everyone else has said, it does get better, though it's somewhat stressful to be experimenting with various devices/juices when you don't have cashflow. It's still doable, but you don't have the luxury of going out and buying three devices, two types of carto, a few tanks, and thirty-odd...

    Convincing my Uncle to join the Ecig world.

    The hardest part about that is a 'true' tobacco flavor without resorting to NET or similar methods, or at least that seems to be the consensus most places. I would angle more towards finding another flavor he likes, perhaps his favorite blend of morning coffee, or a fruit he likes, even...

    where's da buzz?

    Variety packs are a great way to go, absolutely, lets you see what you like without getting stuck with a ton of something you can't vape. Congrats again on making the switch, even if you're still searching for that perfect daily use flavor. I did just check the Apollo site and their liquids...

    Go big or go home

    I may have to get one of those next time I have money to spare, looks amazing, unlike all the product shots online that don't give you an idea of size and finish. I started out thinking I needed a cigalike to be able to quit, but the more I see some of these larger setups with VV/VW features...

    where's da buzz?

    I still get that from as low as 16mg nicotine levels, you may want to change up flavors, I'm using an imitation clove flavoring as I used to smoke kreteks and menthols exclusively towards the end of my time on analogs, and it gives me that 'wake-up buzz' I need, wobbly legs and all. If 24mg...

    What is your PG/VG level? Why?

    100% PG here as it gives me the best throat hit and faster nicotine delivery (subjective) than higher-VG mixes. I haven't experimented with DIY recipes using VG but the pre-filled cartos I started on were probably at least 75/25, maybe 50/50 or worse, and I no longer get a satisfying hit off...

    Any side effects when you first started vaping?

    Oddly, after a day or two of vaping I never had any symptoms described here again, just those first couple days I got a little headache-y and cottonmouth, more water helped both. That's on 18/24mg juices, so I think the whole 'everyone is different' applies very much to this sort of reaction...
